Ecommerce-related Repository Maintainership Transfer

I think given the complexity of work needed and the fact that all the concerns are from the same underlying project which would have its capacity split among other work as well, it doesn’t make sense to continue maintaining this particular set of commerce tools for the whole community.

Given that we haven’t gotten someone to step up to steward all of the work needed to make this stable and usable for the foreseeable future and given that the underlying django-oscar project has dropped support for MySQL our default database, I think it makes the most sense to deprecate the current commerce system and document alternatives as we have been discussing in tCRIL Funded Contribution - WooCommerce Discovery - #3 by mafermazu
